His image and the nickname of "Chapito Trejo" are included in the criminal charts of criminal organizations by the Coordination Group of Baja California since 2009, because Trejo was the man in charge of the security - and escape - of the operation when Gilberto Sanchez Guerrero "El Gil" an ex-cop who became trafficker, detained in Ensenada in 2009, and was wanted since October of 2007 helped escape Raydel Lopez Uriarte "El Muletas" from the Policia Federal.
Since February of 2010, after the capture of Raydel Lopez Uriarte, founder of "Los Uriarte", Trejo Gutierrez started acting as the armed wing of this group, which is headed by cousins and brothers of "El Muletas".

The authorities focused on Trejo again at the beginning of 2011 when the former cop Jesus Israel de la Cruz Lopez "El Tomate" declared that the people from "Los Teos" and "Los Uriarte" made a deal in November of 2010 with Ismael "El Mayo" Zambada, in a meeting in Sinaloa. And in the names of the operators in Tijuana, Trejo was frequently mentioned.
Nowadays he is identified as an armed wing of "Los Chapito Uriarte", just like ZETA identified him in his article "The Fall of El Chapito Uriarte", and as a rival of a cell of "El Aquiles" in the East side of Tijuana.
"El Chapito Trejo" was also in charge of "settling of accounts" and "collecting plaza fees" in the territory of the Tijuana Abelardo Rodriguez Dam and Tecate, where he was currently fighting for the criminal power against two fronts, the CJNG-AFO alliance and against "Los Aquiles".
